    Gerolf, they might go into the mail to some people in case I ever figure out how to securely ship them. Otherwise, meet me at an event. ;)

      I have even seen photos of Qt Ducks (like that of Symbian Foundation).

        Next dev days? :-)

        You could take a bigger cardbox, put some old newspaper around it (so people enjoy reading old news paper, don't they?) and it should work, I hope :-)

        I would put myself as volunteer for a test :-)))

          I also volunteer :) Maybe you can create do-it-yourself version in IKEA style (for better shipping) :)

              for packaging? or for sending?
              For packaging, we could also use a box made of wood, but it will get heavier and thus more expensive to send :-))

                For sending. Like Forum Nokia used to send USB Pen Drives, Card readers, T-Shirts, note books, pen, key chains and other such things which can be sent easily without worrying about shipping them safely.

                  [quote author="Volker" date="1292936499"]"QPrinter":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qprinter.html uses the printer drivers built-in your operating system. This is CUPS on X11/Mac. So, yes you should add CUPS to your system.

                  BTW: It's spelled CUPS (all capital letters) - cups are those small containers we drink our coffee of :-) [/quote]

                  I think he is right, when you specify whether you need this while configure you dont do it in capital letters rather we do it like ./configure -no-cups

                    QPrinter [doc.qt.nokia.com] uses the printer drivers built-in your operating system.

                    -- is this implies, we no need CUPS at all, for printing a image with Qt. If this is case, I can just have the platform support packages, busybox, and Qt. Here, I have just about to complete my project with Qt and qwt. I have to print the graph in apps.

                    thanks

                      You need at least one kind of printing system in your environment, may it be CUPS or lpr on a Unix/Linux box. These are the drivers as seen by Qt.

                        Sathishkumar, QPrinter is not included into Symbian, WinCE, Simulator builds. There are tickets for it, but not sure about time when it will be fixed.

                          Thanks all. Good to know QPrinter uses lpr which can get via Busybox.
